Abstract

PURPOSE:To surely hold electrode pins of a fluorescent lamp at the fixed position of electrode plates of a socket by providing a means restricting the rotation angle of a rotor between the rotor and a socket base of a cover. CONSTITUTION:Electrode pins of a fluorescent lamp are inserted while the groove end of a rotor 3 is matched with the notch of a socket base 1, then the fluorescent lamp is rotated by 90 deg. around a tube axis, a projection 7 provided on the back of the rotor 3 is moved along the semi-circular groove 8 of a cover 4 and stopped when it reaches the end of the groove. Under this condition, the electrode pins 6 of the fluorescent lamp are held at the fixed position of electrode plates 2 at the preset contact pressure, thus no contact failure occurs on the electrode pins. When the fluorescent lamp is fitted between two electrode plates, an observation mark 5 provided on the side face of the rotor 3 can be easily recognized through the notch section of the socket base.

The rotor of the rotary lamp socket rotates between a pair of electrode plates in the socket base, and when the pin groove of the rotor matches the notch of the socket base, the fluorescent lamp is inserted from the notch into the pin groove. Insert the electrode pin and rotate the fluorescent lamp 90'' around the tube axis of the fluorescent lamp, and when the pin groove becomes horizontal, the electrode pin is held in place between the pair of electrode plates. Further, the front edge of the rotor is supported by a socket base and the back is covered with a cover.Therefore, a protrusion is provided on the back surface of the rotor, and a groove is provided in the cover in which the protrusion moves. By doing so, the rotation angle of the rotor can be limited.Although the projections provided on the back surface of the rotor may be provided anywhere, since two lamp sockets are used facing each other as a pair, It is practical to provide protrusions along the direction of the pin grooves and to provide symmetrical semicircular grooves on the cover.Furthermore, the grooves on the cover corresponding to the protrusions on the rotor are provided on the socket base. Of course, the same effect can also be obtained even if the protrusions and grooves are provided in opposite directions.
